The political crisis in Karnataka showed no signs of abating on Monday as two Independent MLAs resigned from the HD Kumaraswamy Cabinet and extended support to the BJP, virtually reducing the Karnataka coalition government to a minority. “More 4-5 legislators, including Congress legislator Roshan Baig, are likely to come to Mumbai tonight. This decision was taken at a breakfast meeting of Congress ministers at Deputy Chief Minister G Parameshwara’s residence. In the prevailing condition, the ministers themselves voluntarily resigned ministership as far as the Congress ministers are concerned,” PTI quoted Venugopal as saying. He himself asked people to submit resignations, even senior leaders are submitting their resignations,” he said.
